As Eric law pointed out ALT+F,C did work before to call Close Tab however the menu now doesn't work. https://twitter.com/ericlaw/status/763441199214694400 I suggest 'B' as this is unused in this menu.

Hi Tanvi, is there any issue in changing this to 'B'? Thanks

Hi Jonathan, We should definitely change it from C to something else. Even B if we don't have another option. But are any of the letters from "New Container Tab" available? That way we can continue showing an underline on a letter. (You can see a similar problem here https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1276412#c17) Thanks for picking up this bug!

I'm changing the access key over as it removed the close tab functionality. The upper case 'B' selects the 'b' in 'Tab' and Tanvi was ok with this change on IRC. Thanks

Does this need uplift? Is it an issue in Firefox 50?

Yup it does.

(In reply to Jonathan Kingston [:jkt] from comment #9) > [String/UUID change made/needed]: You'll still need the l10n=(relman-approver) flag since you're touching a dtd file, but that's OK for l10n (accesskeys are locale specific).

If containers are disabled, do we still have an access key problem in Firefox 50?

Comment on attachment 8781151 [details] Bug 1295160 - Changing access key of Containers menu item to B as C was currently in use AFAIK, about:containers and related work is not planned for Fx50, given that why are we pushing to uplift this to Aurora50. I think it's best if this change rides the 51 train.

Although Containers won't be enabled for general release in Firefox 50, it will be for Test Pilot. So the Close Window access key won't work for Test Pilot users in Firefox 50. I'm not sure if this is something we could fix in the test pilot addon itself. Jonathan, do you know? Also, to better understand the risk of not uplifting this, we need an answer to comment 12. Kamil, perhaps you can help with that?

(In reply to Tanvi Vyas - out until 8/22 [:tanvi] from comment #15) > Also, to better understand the risk of not uplifting this, we need an answer > to comment 12. Kamil, perhaps you can help with that? It doesn't seem to be an issue when containers are disabled under fx50 (m-a). However, under Ubuntu, holding ALT + F and then pressing C doesn't work. You have to press ALT + F, let go of ALT + F when the file menu appears and then press C to close the tab. I think it's just the way Ubuntu deals with shortcuts but I'm not 100% sure. Jonathan, are you seeing the same thing with your Ubuntu machine? This doesn't affect OSX correct?

Comment on attachment 8781151 [details] Bug 1295160 - Changing access key of Containers menu item to B as C was currently in use Thanks Tanvi for the additional info on Containers and TestPilot run which is planned for Fx50. As such the patch is straight forward and worth uplifting to 50 so we provide a good experience to Containers TestPilot users. Aurora+

This needs to get uplifted into fx49 as well. Both "New Container Tab" and "Close Tab" are using the "alt+f+c" access key under the file menu.

This is in fact an issue in Firefox 49. Requesting beta uplift. Approval Request Comment [Feature/regressing bug #]: bug 1191442 - https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/diff/9eb07902468e/browser/locales/en-US/chrome/browser/browser.dtd#l312 [User impact if declined]: Users testing containers in Test Pilot will not be able to use the Close Tab access key. [Describe test coverage new/current, TreeHerder]: We don't have access key tests. [Risks and why]: This is a one letter code change to a line of code that is containers specific. Users that don't have containers enabled will not be affected. [String/UUID change made/needed]: We are changing an access key from "C" to "B".
